That wouldn't be enough for a winch or jump leads (via an anderson cnnesctor under the bonnet) though would it?
I have been looking for the same myself, the Discovery 4 has a bus bar type strip of metal coming off the post that everything bolts to, I just can't find anything remotely similar anywhere. 2015 RRS Autobiography SDV6 1994 Def 90 300tdi |

no where near heavy enough for winch etc
really you need to be looking at marine industry for the type of thing you want |

Oh yeah, but the OP doesn't. So the product might suit post one, but not post three, which followed my post. I am all caught up now!

Sparkylee, that is a neat solution. Have you re routed the main negative lead to the bus bar, and then added a link cable from the bus bar to the battery? The battery terminal connector on my negative lead does not make it easy to connect any additional leads ( unlike the positive lead connector ). I guess I would just need to cut off the existing terminal connector and crimp on a ring connector.

From memory I think I cut the - cable and routed it on to bar far right hand side then to battery
It has a strange terminal for the connection to battery so wanted to keep it I did look into buying a complete - lead but too much £££££ for a 1m lead so if you do cut it be careful it is short. No length for a second cut 
These are them, the heavy duty ones http://www.mobilecentre.co.uk/index.php?ma...=&dto= Looking at the picture I could have got them level 
From these I'm running the winch via the cut out switch mounted through the front of the seat box and also the Anderson connector also mounted on the seat box front for the jump leads which again came from Tim It's good to be back from the dark side DC110 -2012 Black with black hood and black x-tech FFRR 4.2 vogue Renault traffic auto PT crusier convertible Laika x700 Motorhome |

Lee,
Confused by that pic ;-? How come you have a big fat red wire attached to the battery box? ?? |
